I’m about to sell my basement apartment in Mere. Conveyancing lawyers have not yet been instructed, however I have recently received a half-yearly service charge demand – what should I do?

The sensible thing to do is clear the invoice as usual because all ground rent and service charges will be apportioned as part of the financial calculations for completion monies, so you will be reimbursed by the purchaser for the period running from after the completion date to the subsequent invoice date. Most management companies will not acknowledge the buyer until the service charges have been paid and are up to date, so it is important for both buyer and seller for the seller to show that they are up to date. Having a clear account will assist your cause and will leave you no worse off financially.
